In the Old West, the man who rode beside the driver to protect the stagecoach was said to be riding shotgun. A favorite of lawmen and stagecoach drivers alike, Colt®, revolvers and shotguns have been keeping the peace since 1836. In honor of the days gone by, Colt® introduces these "Buckshot Bone" edition knives to celebrate the colorful history of the Colt® shotguns as well as the men brave enough to carry them.

As the saying goes: "Red on black is a friend of Jack. Red on yellow could kill a fellow". The coral snake is one of the deadliest snakes that inhabits North America whereas the milk snake, which is similar in appearance to the coral snake is harmless to humans, and in most cases beneficial in keeping a barn free of rodents and other pests. Keep one of these knives handy in your pocket in case you run into either on the trail or homestead.
